FREE Photographic Exhibition by Vedat AcikalinIn 1990 Turkish/Australian photojournalist, Vedat Acikalin, attended the 75th Anniversary of the famous Gallipoli landing in Turkey. This exhibition is about the commemoration of that significant and emotional anniversary for Australians, New Zealanders and the Turks, and a significant commemoration exhibition in this Anzac centenary year, 2015.
